Question

You were thrilled when your employer named you the new Southeast Asia manager and put you in charge of setting up the organization’s office there. But in only your second week at the new location, you encountered something unusual. A local government worker informed you that he would process your permit applications and other paperwork more quickly if you were willing to give him a cash payment, otherwise it may take up to 18 months to process them. Where you come from, that’s a bribe, which is both unethical and illegal. Your career is riding on this promotion, so what should you do?
